Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti announced his imminent departure to coach Brazil, expressing respect for the club and its fans. He emphasized that while he will take on this significant new challenge starting May 26, he wishes to conclude his time at Madrid on a strong note. Ancelotti reflected on his six-year tenure, highlighting his commitment and accomplishments, including 15 trophies. He is prepared for the transition, with Bayer Leverkusen's Xabi Alonso lined up as his successor. The club has yet to officially comment on his departure, but he assured there's no conflict involved.
I couldn't be Madrid coach for the rest of my life. It comes to an end for many reasons. The club may need a new impetus.
If I didn't have the press conference today, it would be fantastic. There are things I can't explain right now because I'm at Madrid and I want to respect the shirt.
A thousand thanks to this club. And we'll carry on. I'll always be a Madrid fan. It's the end of an era. Spectacular.
Madrid will release a statement whenever it wants. There is no problem whatsoever and they'll do it when they deem it appropriate.
